Peanut Butter Slices

 When peeled baby carrots hit the supermarkets, I thought they  were the best thing since sliced bread.  Peeling carrots is no fun and takes too long so the baby carrots are a reasonable convenience food in my book.  But the PB slices might be crossing a line.  I have lots to do but I'm not so busy that I can't dip a knife in a jar of PB and smear some across a slice o'bread!  Is this what we've been reduced to, peanut butter slices?  I'm sorry but this type of processing and packaging should be exclusive to cheese and cheese only. 

Can you imagine in the dim morning light packing lunches and mixing up PB Slices and American Cheese Singles?  (((shudder)))  A ham and PB sandwich does not sound appetizing to me at all.  However, something did catch my eye when I saw this new PB innovation....



... THE COLORS!  Fabulous paint color inspiration!  The PB slices could almost pass for paint chips.  On behalf of paint store staff everywhere, allow me to list some of my favorite "peanut" inspired paint colors so you can leave your PB slices at home:
